Abstract

The present invention achieves an object of continuously supplying a melt from a melt nozzle over a long period of time by adjusting the contents of Mn and S in an Fe—B—Si—C-type amorphous alloy ribbon. An amorphous alloy ribbon of the present invention includes a composition containing Fe, Si, B, C, Mn, S, and inevitable impurities, the composition containing, with respect to 100.0 atm % of the total amount of Fe, Si, B, and C, 3.0 atm % or more and 10.0 atm % or less of Si, 10.0 atm % or more and 15.0 atm % or less of B, and 0.2 atm % or more and 0.4 atm % or less of C, the amorphous alloy ribbon having a content ratio of Mn of more than 0.12 mass % and less than 0.15 mass %, and a content ratio of S of 0.0036 mass % or more and less than 0.0045 mass %, the amorphous alloy ribbon having a thickness of 10 μm or more and 40 μm or less, and a width of 100 mm or more and 300 mm or less.

Claims (21)

1. An amorphous alloy ribbon, comprising a composition containing Fe, Si, B, C, Mn, S, and inevitable impurities,

the composition containing, with respect to 100.0 atm % of a total amount of Fe, Si, B, and C,

3.0 atm % or more and 10.0 atm % or less of Si,

10.0 atm % or more and 15.0 atm % or less of B, and

0.2 atm % or more and 0.4 atm % or less of C,

the amorphous alloy ribbon having

a content ratio of Mn of more than 0.12 mass % and 0.145 mass % or less, and

a content ratio of S of more than 0.0034 mass % and less than 0.0045 mass %,

the amorphous alloy ribbon having a thickness of 10 μm or more and 40 μm or less, and a width of 100 mm or more and 300 mm or less.

2. The amorphous alloy ribbon according to claim 1 , wherein the content ratio of S is 0.0036 mass % or more and 0.0044 mass % or less.

3. The amorphous alloy ribbon according to claim 1 , wherein the content ratio of Mn is 0.125 mass % or more.

4. A method of producing an amorphous alloy ribbon, comprising the steps of:

preparing a melt of a raw material alloy having a composition containing Fe, Si, B, C, Mn, S, and inevitable impurities,

the composition containing, with respect to 100.0 atm % of a total amount of Fe, Si, B, and C,

3.0 atm % or more and 10.0 atm % or less of Si,

10.0 atm % or more and 15.0 atm % or less of B, and

0.2 atm % or more and 0.4 atm % or less of C,

the raw material alloy having

a content ratio of Mn of more than 0.12 mass % and 0.145 mass % or less, and

a content ratio of S of more than 0.0034 mass % and less than 0.0045 mass %; and

supplying the melt onto a chill roll through a melt discharge slit.
